Rondo blew the open layup, KG gassed, Ray Ray cold, dumb last shot in regulation, Posh Spice seals the deal in OT. Miami's really gonna win a title with this fugly iso dribble offense? Makes Atlanta's look respectable. I guess even bad ideas can work if you brute force it enough.

Come, now, steph g. NOTHING is uglier than Atlanta's offense. At least Bron and Wade *try* to get into the lane most of the time. Joe Johnson and Jamal Crawford dribble around aimlessly and then chuck up contested 20-footers.

Without a healthy Rondo.. The Celtics grind to a halt. And how did Garnett end up on Bron on that last play.. the Bostrich gets that tip because he's got Ray Allen trying to box him out, and, well, we all love Jesus Shuttleworth, but good luck with that one.

And is it just me or does Paul Pierce always, always wait WAAAAYYY too long to start his move in those situations? I age watching him hold the ball.

@AnacondaHL:I was actually at the Mediterranean seaside for a 10-day vacation with my girlfriend, and I came back 6 days early to watch the playoffs (certainly not because she cheated on me with an Israeli dance choreographer)! No regrets. Super-awesome post-season.

did jason terry really say this: ddockett DARNELL DOCKETT (twitter)DID ANYONE JUST HEAR WHAT JASON TERRY SAID "well, all series long we have to penetrate there bigs, get deep and suck the D up!"----#PAUSE

The box score is a funny thing - often it makes a valuable player seem worse than he really is (like Joel Anthony) and it also makes someone who played poorly seem great.

Russell Westbrook was an example of the latter. The last 5 minutes of the 4th, Kevin Durant got two touches, TWO. And he passed off one of them because Westbrook left him with that pass in a double team. The entire OKC offence consisted of Westbrook, the PG, not even looking to know where his teammates are, and dribbling around trying to play 1on1 against his defender. He ended up taking a huge amount of difficult shots down the stretch, many of which KD should have been taking. If Westbrook was playing his role, OKC could have taken this in regulation.

1) AK-47's tattoo is horrible. The idea isn't horrible, and dragons are cool and all, but I mean, both of the wings look like giant bulging scrotums. Who wants giant scrotums on each scapula? THAT GUY!

2) In light of the recent firefight in Greece, maybe the "AK-47" nickname needs to go. But I think this new tat gives us some material. Like: DragonBallz?

Umm.. not that I'm an expert on the Oklahoma City Thunder, but every time ever I've seen them play, this is what Westbook does. He's a "point guard" in the sense that he brings the ball up the floor and has it in hands at the start of the play, not in the sense of initiating an offense and looking to set up his teammates.
